Logan Mwangi was killed by his mother and stepfather and a 14-year-old boy and dumped in a river.

The starting point for determining the minimum sentence where the offender is under 18 is 12 years and 15 years for those over 18.

A smaller number go to privately managed secure training centres and others go to secure children's homes.Logan's mother Angharad Williamson and stepfather John Cole were found guilty of his murder in April "There are higher levels of staffing, support is much more thorough, there are opportunities for therapeutic interventions, capacity to work with the child towards their release, engage them in education and training and massively increase prospects for them in later life," he said.

Mr Justice Coulson said identifying Will Cornick was in the public interest and would have "a clear deterrent effect". He said it would also have a negative impact on them after being released: "Employers will be much less likely to offer opportunities to children who have been all over the front pages of the newspapers, colleges will be much less likely to offer places to such children."
